A new generation has come of age bringing with it a lifestyle that is shaped by an unprecedented advance in technology and dramatic events both local and foreign. Because of this rapid change we can say that the older generations are finding it hard to relate to the new generation particularly with the new way of life and current trends. With the arrival of new forms of media such as cell phones, social networking and the internet, we are now in a world where the only thing constant is change.

Technology plays a major part in the lifestyle of this new generation. Nowadays, sending a message to a friend that is thousands of miles away is as simple as pushing of a button, direct access to unlimited storage of information takes no more effort than just a click away. Social networking such as Facebook and Friendster brings friends and family more closely together and not to mention a huge potential given to the youth to be creative and share their opinion through blogging and present themselves to the world through countless personal profiles. Young people today accept these advancements and had made them uniquely aware to its advantages and disadvantages. These tools are a big help in their everyday living but we also have to acknowledge that it is making the youth “lazier” a good example is the internet in which when a teacher asks a student to make an essay, he or she would just find a site, copy paste the content and then submit. Another prime example of this laziness is because many of the resources are available in just an easy reach, the youth in turn is encouraged not do anything and remain in the confines of their comfort zones, not exploring beyond their boundaries and capabilities. But perhaps the most alarming factor that could be observed on the youth today is the growing indifference to the responsibilities they hold in society and neglecting the big role they play in its development. They fail to realize that it is them who are the hope of the...

...Description
An in-depth report on the causes, diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of stress.
Lifestyle Changes:
A healthy lifestyle is an essential companion to any stress-reduction program. General health and stress resistance can be enhanced by regular exercise, a diet rich in a variety of whole grains, vegetables, and fruits, and by avoiding excessive alcohol, caffeine, and tobacco.
Exercise
Exercise in combination with stress management techniques is extremely important for many reasons:
* Exercise is an effective distraction from stressful events.
* Exercise may directly blunt the harmful effects of stress on blood pressure and the heart (exercise protects the heart in any case).
Usually, a varied exercise regime is more interesting, and thus easier to stick to. Start slowly. Strenuous exercise in people who are not used to it can be very dangerous and any exercise program should be discussed with a physician. In addition, half of all people who begin a vigorous training regime drop out within a year. The key is to find activities that are exciting, challenging, and satisfying. The following are some suggestions:
* Sign up for aerobics classes at a gym.
* Brisk walking is an excellent aerobic exercise that is free and available to nearly anyone. Even short brisk walks can relieve bouts of stress.

...The "lifestyle/exposure theory" was developed by Hindelang, Gottfredson, and Garofalo (1978:243; e.g., see Goldstein, 1994; Maxfield, 1987:275; Miethe, Stafford, and Long, 1987:184). This model of criminal events links victimization risks to the daily activities of specific individuals (Goldstein, 1994:54; Kennedy and Forde, 1990:208).Lifestyles are patterned, regular, recurrent, prevalent, or "routine activities" (Robinson, 1997b; also see Cohen and Felson, 1979; Felson, 1994; Hindelang, Gottfredson, and Garofalo, 1978:241; Garofalo, 1987:24, 39). Lifestyles consist of the activities that people engage in on a daily basis, including both obligatory and discretionary activities. LeBeau and Coulson (1996:3; also see LeBeau and Corcoran, 1990) assert that:The former are activities that must be undertaken while the latter because they are pursued by choice are called discretionary. 'An activity is discretionary if there is a greater chance of choice than constraint, and obligatory if there is a greater degree of constraint than choice" (Chapin, 1974:38). Both activities have a duration, position in time, a place in a sequence of events, and a fixed location or path in space (Chapin, 1974:37).Kennedy and Forde (1990:208) summarized the lifestyle/exposure model as "lifestyle, encompassing differences in age, sex, marital status, family income, and race, influences daily routines and vulnerability to criminal...

During various stress management studies it was revealed that the fundamental cause of the illness (even the heart disease) was the sense of isolation. When someone feels isolated and alone, as if lacking something in his life, it leads to self-involvement, disappointment and lastly the frustration and hostility. This changes our behavior pattern and the way we react to any situation around. In short, perception of isolation or lack of love and support from others can lead...

...Lifestyle Essay
I describe my lifestyle as a home-buddy person. I always stay in the house except on certain occasions where I have to travel for family gatherings or attend to unplanned errands. But whenever possible, I would prefer to stay home and watch my favorite TV shows or movies and be with my family. I also like to cook and barbeque for everyone in the house. And just like a typical Filipino family who prefer to live all together, my family is big. I’m glad my parents invested on a sizable house early on to be able to accommodate our growing family.
I live in a sizable home. It is a two story house with a receiving/living room, a bedroom, a family room, a dining room, a kitchen, a full bathroom, a laundry area, and a car garage on the first floor and several bedrooms, bathrooms, and a computer area in the second floor of the house. When you enter the house through the front door on the right side of the house, you would initially see the receiving/living room with three black-colored couches and a large brown coffee table on your right side, the bedroom with a huge door and the stairs leading to the second floor on your left side, a tiled flooring and light painted walls. Right next to the receiving/living room is the family room that is divided by a built-in low structure where my mother displays her eye-catching, beautifully made figurines on top of that structure. And when you’re in the family room, the built-in...
